8. SETTING SYSTEM VOLUME LEVELS
To allow for maximum flexibility the Flexmike, pods and Redcat Access speaker
all have independent volume controls. By default, all devices are set to the center
position, which is optimal in most cases.
To set the proper volume for your classroom, place the microphone around your
neck and take the following steps:
Flexmike Volume (Redcat Access and Pod speakers)
To adjust, use the up/down buttons on the
Flexmike.
1. Select an individual pod and begin speaking in
a normal voice.
2. The volume should be at a level that the kids
seated around the pod can clearly hear, but not
so loud that other nearby groups could hear.
3. Press the center button to turn on the Redcat
Access Speaker and speak in a normal voice.
4. The volume should be at a level that the kids
can clearly hear from the other side of the
room. You should just barely be able to hear
your own voice.
Volume
up/down
NOTE: at proper volume levels, there should not be any “feedback” or
squealing from the speaker outside of 2-3 feet. If there is, turn the Flexmike
volume down slightly.
Pod Sharing Volume
To adjust, use the Microphone Volume control on the Redcat Access.
5. Rapid press the pod #1 button followed by the center button to activate the
pod #1 sharing function (the center and #1 button should both be lighted).
6. With the teacher’s Flexmike muted, begin speaking into pod #1 from a
distance of 18-24”.
7. The volume should be at a level that the kids can clearly hear from the other
side of the room. You should just barely be able to hear your own voice (it
helps to have another person in the room to verify).
8. Adjust the volume on the Redcat Access up/down slightly as needed.
NOTE: check the pod sharing volume level at the pod nearest the Redcat
Access to verify there is no “feedback” or squealing from the speaker. If
there is, turn the volume down slightly.
